Turn your three-axis machine into a five-axis (without buying a new one)
That’s exactly what UCAM’s USSR-200q tilting table makes possible. Compact enough to fit on a small VMC, with a tilt range of plus or minus 110 degrees. It converts any existing three-axis machine into a full five-axis setup, and that means unlocking complex geometries, tighter accuracies, and complete part machining in a single setup. Join the conversation with MTDCNC’s Ashutosh Arora to explore how the USSR-200q is helping manufacturers in aerospace, automotive, cutting tools, and mining tackle complex components they simply couldn’t before.

Here at MTDCNC, you’ll find a collection of top-notch podcasts featuring discussions and insights from the manufacturing market.
The engineering podcast that engineers actually asked for!
From saw doctors to applications engineers, MTDCNC’s Tom Skubala and Chloe Reeve have lived the shop floor life – and now they’re talking about it. The debut episode of Tools Down covers everything from crashed machines and mindset to whether manufacturing really has a skills gap or just a serious image problem. Raw, honest, and refreshingly unfiltered – this is the podcast built by engineers, for engineers. Tune in to hear some interesting details about scrapped aerospace parts, tools dunked in tea, and the man the press once called mad for building the Eiffel Tower.
Why is workholding always an afterthought – if the machine never touches the part?
Invest a million dollars in a machine tool, forget about the chuck – and you’ve already compromised everything. In today’s MTDCNC podcast, Hainbuch’s Jarred breaks down why workholding is the most overlooked variable on the shop floor and how getting it right saves time, money, and scrap. From the IQ Chuck measuring diameter, RPM, and part temperature live inside the chuck, to the CentroteX AC system performing complete chuck changeovers lights out without an operator – there’s a reason one customer was able to take thirteen operators off a single cell. Join the conversation and find out why workholding isn’t
